I have had the best time in the past two days
I went to Mt Dora with my good friend LindaRoderick for the citywide plant fair. We arrived yesterday morning although the fair didn't start till this morning. We took the opportunity to take a leisurely stroll around a really beautiful quaint little town. It was lovely and we got some shopping done while in their downtown shoipping area.
This morning, we arrived at the fair and found that the first flower booths we came across were orchid vendors! YAY!
I came home from the fair with 3 Tillandsia (air plants, not orchids), 2 succulents (will have to find names
, a Ludisia discolor alba from EFG, a Den spectabile frm flavus 'Exotic Gold' x Den spectabile frm flavus 'Shortie' from OrchidsAmore, an Onc Twinkle 'Fragrance Fantasy', an Onc Twinkle 'Red, a Bulb Thai Spider and a blooming Cirr Elizabeth Ann 'Buckleberry' x Cirr Doris Dukes (these last 4 were from Prince Orchids. They had really nice stuff for great prices. They do not have a web site and the nice lady (Joy Prince) said they mostly do shows but will sell privately if she is contacted through email), a beautiful pot of Podocarpus that I got at an Bonsai stand (bought it for the pot but I've decided to leave it as is for a while), some little rubber frogs, some gorgeous mosaic animals (a lizard, a frog and a Boxer!), some worm tea from Our Vital Earth (
Our Vital Earth - All Natural Worm Castings, Worm Tea ), the cutest little planters (couldn't decide so I got 4
), some gourmet doggie biscuits for my babies Sammi and Lucas and a couple of little gifts for laura's two grandsons
I arrived home to find that a package from a good OB friend got here yesterday about an hour after I left. My sweetheart of a hubby unpacked and misted 12 new chids!!!
Tomorrow is repotting and playing in the orchid room day...can't wait
WOW what a weekend!!!
